Technology is stripping us of our humanity - people are more in tune with gadgets than they are with each other...that is one reason they feel nothing when they slander, haze, bully someone online...unlike the old days when you stuffed someone in a trash can and had to look them in the eye while doing it. Because of the anonymity of the internet, kids can easily post cruel and untrue comments with no personal responsibility attached.
